Charming Wash Tubs

Wash Tubs

 

These wonderful charming wash tubs.

They speak of days gone by,

They were used for children's bath times many moons ago.

Women even used them to do laundry in with a wash board.

 

 

As a little girl my Grandmother would fill it with fresh

water every morning in the summer.  And we had our own

swimming pool!

 

Each one of my own grandchildren have

had the memories of a good time and summer fun

in their own tubs.

 

Making memories!

 

Take the time to have fun...

 

Spend time with those you love...

 

 

Sit at the Fathers feet, and thank the Lord above.

For time with your children is short, like a blink...

 

Days gone by, only memories!

 

 

Midlife crisis is that moment when you realize your children

and your clothes are about the same age.

 

Blessings, Roxy

 

 

 



Amazing Days Are Coming

 

A Day To Remember

 

This was an amazing day. 

 We took a drive to meet some friends for dinner, at a wonderful mountain restaurant.

The drive was so refreshing, and cool. Every mile higher brought relief from the blazing heat.

Higher and higher till our ears popped.

Cooler and cooler the temperature kept dropping!

 

Nothing like great food and best friends!

Danny and I picked pine cones because they were so pretty, and smelled wonderful.

Maybe I can find a craft project for fall or Christmas to use these treasures in.

 

God is amazing in how He orchestrates our lives with His body of believers.

We ran into our other great friends while up there, and we all got together  in our friends cabin. and we had the most powerful time in prayer and worship.

 

We had church folks!

His Presence just flowed over us!

God is taking His people to new heights.

 

Keep looking Up for His redemption is Nigh.

 

Were going up, now is the time to see higher.

Think higher thoughts.

Hear in the Spirit.

He has great things in store for His children.

 

Blessings Roxy

 

 

Summer Heat

summer

Heat index in triple digits!

Global warming?

Drought in the breadbasket!

No rain

Fires burning!

High winds!

OK enough of the bad news.

Now there telling us about the increase in food prices.

Corn crops fail.

(Were gonna wish corn syrup was good for ya)

The price of meat will skyrocket by the new year 2013

OK enough of the bad news.

Have you seen the price increase at your local Wally world?

Shucks makes ya wanna take up your grass and plant

ya a garden.

Hey were not stupid we can read the signs of the times.

Buckle up people!

It could be way worst this time next year, plan ahead for the practical

things you can do now!

The women described in Proverbs says's she laughs at the days to come for she has made herself ready (prepared)

The Good News

God has everything under control.

Ask Him to show you what to do for hard times coming.

For they will come.

Blessings Roxy

Energized

Energized By The Spirit

The last couple of months have been very still and quiet.

Be still and know that I am God!

We are in a holding pattern.

Waiting for His timing.

We are in the process of adopting sisters.

Waiting to find out if we are a good match!

God's Will Be Done

To be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man.

Ephesians 3:16

I love to sit at His feet drink the cup from His hand and breath.

Feel His heart beat!

Fellowship

Presence

Brings:

Peace

Joy

I have learned to read and study God's Word Daily.

For it is the substance to sustain.

Everything is subject to change, but He changes not!

Taking time to be with Him!

Comfort and Joy

Comfort and Joy

When the snow is blowing and the wind is whipping, it is a great comfort to sit and warm yourself in front of the wood stove.

Once again we can take this time of year and remember not everyone has the means to stay warm and have shelter.  A good hot meal is still a luxury for many. There are so many in need of assistance, and we all should give a helping of love and substance.

My little children let us not love in word or tongue, but in deed and in truth.

1John 3:18

When you feed the hungry.

Love the orphan.

Or take care of the widow.

You do it unto Me (Jesus)

Merry Christmas

Blessings,

Roxy

Cozy Kitchen

Feeling Cozy

I have a warm and cozy kitchen, it has sunflowers and rooster decor.

It's a feel good kinda kitchen.

Teapot is always ready to have a cup of tea.

Just turn it on and tea time.

My friend Missy just introduced me to my new favorite tea.

Irish Breakfast

She gave it to me with a lovely tea cup.

My friend Ava gave me a surprise Birthday Party

And I must say I was surprised!

I truly felt honored and loved.

Have you ever heard of the orphaned spirit?

Well I can tell you I will never feel that ever again!

Loving others and showing honor really pleases the Lord.

Feeling warm and cozy and loved it what our hearts cry out for.

I thank God for all those women God has given me to share my life with.

We must keep ourselves in the position to minister.

Atmosphere is really something we can do in our homes.

Creating an inviting place to rest and relax.

The kitchen is the heart of the home. 

Blessings to all!

Occupy Till I Return...

Preoccupied

OR

Occupy till I Return

So much is going on in the world, yet we cannot be taken off course.

We are called to run our race.

It is a race of endurance.

God is the same He never changes.

Riots in the streets, people crying out for justice.

Will this get worse?

I know, let's all just pretend it's not happening!

Open your eyes people.

The change is coming!

Perilous Days

You hear people all the time saying how busy they are

 I don't have much time.

Busy Busy Busy

"What Be Still"

So many books to read.

Did you see that new movie?

Are you busy every day of the week?

Maybe we are just a wee-bit preoccupied!

Ask yourselves,

Do we often become preoccupied with the circumstances?

Being occupied till He returns is His idea.

What does  being occupied look like?

Being about My Father's business!!

Blessings,

Roxy



Pumpkin or the Jack- o'- lantern?

Harvest

What will be harvested from our days here on this earth?

Even a pumpkin can produce more of his kind (if nonGMO)

Pulp that produces luscious bread or muffins.

Seeds to enjoy and snack on.

Fruitful life!

OK mind my own business (Not)

Why would anyone take a wonderful beautiful pumpkin,

and carve it into a face or design.

What lies behind this ritual every October 31st?

Google it my dear Watson!

I know I will hide my identity.

I will dress-up and Who will not recognize me?

Evil and scary is the new cool

BOO!

The spirit behind this is not just fun, but rather fear.

Also, I believe it gives way to more of an interest in occult practices.

Want candy?

Kids just wanna have fun?

Everyone does it!

I have prayed about putting this post up and I felt a huge opposition!

The Word Of God says to stay away  from even the appearance of evil.

I will trick you if you don't treat me.

Harvest should be the time of the pondering of the fruits of the spirit.

Not witches and devils and bats and cats and ghost.

Come on people!

We are called to be separate from the world, not join in to all their occult interest.

Harry Potter

Movies of just plain evil and demonic.

Wake up America this stuff is real not just make believe.

OK I feel better!

 God loves us and what we do and what we participate in will effect you and your children.

Now if you have God's blessing in this  (please disregard).

jack-o'-lantern= The carved pumpkin may have originated with the witches' use of a skull with a candle in it to light the way to coven meetings.

(probably a good witch)
